How To Apply A Freelance Visa In Dubai

Freelancers can apply for a work permit and residence visa from a select variety of free zones in Dubai, including International Media Production Zone, Dubai Technology and Media Free Zone, Dubai Media City and Knowledge Village. Your profession must be related to these free zones'activities, which are mainly media-associated: artists, editors, directors, writers, engineers, producers, photographers, camera operators and technicians in the areas of film, TV, music, radio and print media. Freelancers are given a freelance license, which identifies you as a lone practitioner and allows you to run your business in your birth name as against a brand name. You'll additionally be given a UAE residence visa. Both the license and visa are valid for one year. This generally costs between Dhs.20,000-30,000.
